Hi All

I run Linux 1.2.5, it is supposed to be POSIX compliant, I assumed that 
meant the wrapper needed the POSIX options ... is this necessary with Linux?

I tried as majordomo.majordomo but the wrapper could not run sendmail 
then, even with Tmajordomo in sendmail.cf

Some of the message I have seen on this list indicate that suid root on 
wrapper might not be necessary.

Which is the case ... POSIX ... to be or not to be<g>?

Best Regards
sm
